The Origin of Cocoa

Originating in the depths of the Amazon, there were originally 2 varieties of cocoa beans.

Today more than 30,000 different varieties of cocoa are grown in more than 50 countries around the world.

Explore the Manufactory with Cultivating Cocoa

Through our chocolate making process we work with outstanding cocoa beans that allow us to prioritise quality, shared value and impact in the supply chains and communities we work with.

This allows us to work with and connect with cocoa growing communities around the world to better understand the journey of their materials, the flavour they create and the challenges that they face.

Through our journey we’ve tried cocoa that tastes like roses and some that taste like peaches and grapefruit, allowing us to explore the flavour of each harvest like we might taste wine.

Join us for a tasting to explore some of these flavours with us as we endeavour to explore and share more about this amazing world of cocoa.
